"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
This is what below AFC looks like

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Gay people are not AFC. They're gay. The label AFC can't even apply.

Gay people are wbAFC which makes them think that having sex with men was okay.

Maybe. I dunno. Gay people seem to just not have any desire for girls, and that's okay with me, because most gay guys could probably steal any girl from you if they wanted considering how much they know about women (they spend all of their time with them).
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
See, I have a theory that gayness is actually a treatable mental disorder like a fetish created by childhood trauma (it was in the psychiatric manual until 1974 supported by numerous studies), but talking about it will get me into trouble

picking on gay guys is kinda AFC
*Darth crawls under his bed and cries at his AFC-ness*
No, actually I wasn't picking on homosexuals, just stating my opinion that it is not a "gender identity" but rather a complex psychological issue that is potentially treatable.
Ah, screw it. This is a boring argument anyway. Yes, actually picking on homosexuals is retarded, I agree with you. And mean-spirited. I'd never do it.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
